With profound sadness we would like to announce the passing of Robert Gregory Regan, 72, of Hinesville Ga., on Sunday, Sept. 24, 2023, after a long battle with peripheral arterial disease.

Robert was born on May 28, 1951, in Lake Charles, La. to Robert E. and Iris Reed Regan. He was the oldest and only boy of four children.  He was a graduate of Lake Charles High School, studied accounting at McNeese State University and served in the United States Army.  Robert was a pipefitter and traveled the world and United States, making many close friends along the way.

Robert grew up on a bayou helping his dad who was a professional fisherman.  This led Robert to be an avid outdoorsman, enjoying fishing, hunting and in his later years, golf.  Robert also was an amateur historian, loving to read anything pertaining to early American history and its battles.  

Robert Gregory Regan will be remembered most as a loving friend, father and grandfather.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Robert E. and Iris Reed Regan and his sisters, Jennifer Gail Regan Mouhot and Julie Katheryn Regan Mallette.

He is survived by his daughter, Brandi Jeanice Thompson and her husband, Scott Thompson, of Richmond Hill, Ga,; a grandson, Connor Matthew Thompson; a granddaughter, Caroline Elizabeth Thompson, both of Richmond Hill, Ga.; a sister, Theresa Rachel Regan-Mancuso of La.; nieces, Marcie D Richardson of Tiffin, Ohio; Denise D. Hebert of New Iberia, La.; and Christina Wortham of Elgin, Fla., and many cousins, nieces and nephews.

Robert’s remains were cremated, as per his last wishes, and funeral services will be announced at a later date.
